      You get a gold star for this post! I’m a typographer and appreciate you spreading the news about these eyesores!

      This was a great post! I agreed with everything you said.

      I quite agree with you about the fonts. Personally, I tend to prefer any that are ‘serifs’ fonts because I find them easier to read. I know they take up more space on the page, but I love them!
